To avoid complications, LogicForce's transportation management system has arranged for TransPrime to pick up a shipment on Friday at 10 a.m. on docks 1 and 2, and for Worldwide Shipping to deliver a shipment on Friday at 1 p.m. on docks 5 and 6. Which tool within the TMS has made these arrangements?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The tool within the TMS that has made the arrangements is appointment scheduling, as it has specified the exact time and location for each pickup and delivery. Load tendering and routing and scheduling may be used in conjunction with appointment scheduling, but they do not specifically address the timing and location of pickups and deliveries. Status tracking is used to monitor the progress of shipments once they are in transit, and is not relevant to this situation.
